  1. Throughout Todd Dodge’s football career, he’s experienced everything there is to when it comes to recruiting. In 1981, he was the target. As a state championship winning quarterback out of Port Arthur, he ended up playing for Texas. “I tell players all the time, … back in 1980, 81 when I was getting recruited, literally, the recruiting process started around January 1 and it lasted about one month,” Dodge said. “There were no games that you went to, there were no camps, there were no junior days. You found out, basically, your coach told you when the season was over with, ‘Oh, by the way, these guys like you.’ He probably already set up your visits for you and here’s your four, five visits. So it was only about a one month process.” Two and a half decades later, he was the parent of a highly sought-after recruit when colleges from all over the state were after Riley Dodge. Todd coached Riley at Southlake Carroll, where he led the Dragons to a state championship over Westlake High School. “I went through it with my son Riley, who’s 26 years old right now, and it just seems like yesterday that he was going through the process,” Dodge said about his son who is currently on the football staff at Texas. Riley was originally committed to follow in his dad’s footsteps and play for Texas, but instead, he ended up just following his dad. After coaching his son to the 2006 state championship, Todd became the head coach at The University of North Texas where Riley ended up playing from 2008-2009.

  2. I couldn't help but think about Coach Dodge, who has rightfully taken a lot of the blame for the downward spiral we dealt with and appear to have finally overcome. A lot of the best players on the team were Dodge recruits which had been pointed out here. I can't help but think/hope that he was watching the game intently -- pulling for the Mean Green and his players and their families... Same thing can be said for Riley... Todd Dodge handled a unfortunate situation with a lot of dignity and I will always remember that. I hope he got some satisfaction from seeing some of his recruits play so well in a New Years Day Bowl game on national TV.
